The National Assembly, on Tuesday, raised the alarm over the frustration of the ongoing Constitution Amendment exercise by state governors and speakers of about 25 Houses of Assembly.
Deputy President of the Senate, Ovie Omo-Agege, who is the chairman of the Constitution Review Committee, made the revelation during a press conference in Abuja.
He said governors and speakers are demanding the creation of state police before they will vote on the 44 bills sent to them for assent.
Before the bills are signed into law by President Muhammadu Buhari, at least 24 State Houses of Assembly must concur. So far, only 11 have so far voted.
